Top choice in Ohrid

LoginSave

This property has two studio apartments, both of which sleep four, set in the heart of the Old Town. Each is well equipped and comes with a shady balcony. The apartment on the 1st floor is slightly bigger, but the top-floor apartment's balcony is more private and has one of the best views in town, right over the lake and Sveta Sofija Cathedral.

The owner is a professional diver who can organise diving excursions on the lake. The room prices are discounted heavily during low season (October to May), except over public holidays.
